so ambitious almost seems not american
I see only a few pieces a year. I am so glad I picked this. The play
is timely. And it is as ambitious a production as Ihave ever seen on
a Broadway stage. The cast is superb. The staging wonderful. It
has left me having discussions with my children and with my
friends as to what is the definition of success, what does it mean to
be responsible to yourself, and how do you live in a society that
values the accumulation of wealth most highly. I loved the set
changes. I loved the questions posed. Will go again when the
performances become even richer. ... Read more

lead parts. Another favorite was Brad F as Pepper

illustrated one side of the choice Joe is faced
with. I thought Brad did a fantastic job presenting
both the humor and the seriousness of Pepper's role. ... Read more
